McCain/Palin supporters are idiots. So said the scribes of ABC's Boston Legal who scripted a show that went out of its way to trash Sarah Palin and elevate the election of Barack Obama to mythical status. Oh. And bloggers are "entry level life forms that intellectually have yet to emerge from the primordial ooze." The thrust of the storyline was a lawsuit brought by a woman who claimed…

This is a video that is both extremely funny as well as very sad. It shows how the perceptions of Barack Obama voters were shaped by the mainstream media. We have already seen the vast amount of misinformation displayed by Obama supporters by an interview with them on the streets of New York conducted by the Howard Stern Show and now the How Obama Got Elected website goes into even more detail…

Before a few weeks ago, I don't recall seeing Kathleen Parker much on TV.  But tuning into Andrea Mitchell's MSNBC show this afternoon, there she was.  And when I got back from the gym and fired up my DVR of David Gregory's "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?"  Yup, Parker redux.Let's see.  What might possibly explain Kathleen Parker's sudden popularity on MSNBC?  You don't suppose it could conceivably…
